ApartmentIQ equips multifamily teams with real-time, unit-level insights across every market and competitor. With over five years of public data and over 37 million units tracked, our platform helps revenue, operations, and asset teams optimize pricing, benchmark performance, and uncover growth opportunities.

The ApartmentIQ Market Survey feature is an essential data analytics tool that drives organizational efficiency by automating the market survey process. This feature fundamentally revolutionizes the process, directly contributing to valuable time savings and optimized revenue potential across your portfolio.

The key benefits include:

• Zero Manual Data Entry: The system autonomously collects comp data daily from reliable public sources. This 100% public data is integrated and updated nightly, eliminating the hundreds of person-hours currently spent by property managers on manual gathering, validation, and sharing.
• Data Integrity: All data is rigorously validated across multiple sources and captured at the unit level. This ensures maximum reliability and a standardized, auditable data stream for all strategic decision-making.
• Comprehensive Coverage: The platform provides access to the most extensive competitive property database available, ensuring unparalleled coverage for tracking properties across the entire operational footprint, regardless of their affiliation with ApartmentIQ.

By implementing this automated solution, your teams can transition from manual data collection to high-value strategic analysis. ApartmentIQ’s Market Survey feature delivers the accurate, timely data necessary to support scalable, data-driven decisions, ultimately reducing operational costs while supporting portfolio-wide operations.

Initial Market Configuration

To get started with ApartmentIQ's Market Survey feature, we will need a list of all subject properties, and a list of preferred competitive properties for each Market Survey - alternatively, we are able to pull a list of dynamic comps from our system for you. 

Ongoing Competitive Property Management

Beyond initial implementation, Admin, Manager and Editor Users have the ability to edit comps at any time within your Market Surveys on an ongoing basis. Admin Users can edit comps for all Market Surveys within your portfolio. Manager and Editor Users have the ability to edit comps for their assigned Market Surveys.  

To learn more about managing your comps within a Market Survey, we encourage you to review this help center article.

Establishing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) is essential for ensuring your team consistently gets the most out of ApartmentIQ. 

To start, you should set clear expectations for what metrics your team will focus on in their reporting. This may include key performance indicators like Advertised Occupancy rates, applications, leasing in the last 7 days, and rent growth, which can all be tracked within the Market Survey platform. 

For best results, your team should access ApartmentIQ’s Market Survey feature frequently. We suggest that your teams access the platform weekly, if not daily, to monitor market changes and make timely pricing decisions. This helps them stay proactive rather than reactive.

Finally, consider other ways to maximize your team's efficiency:

• Training: Use ApartmentIQ's training resources to onboard new hires. This ensures everyone is familiar with the platform and follows the same processes from day one.
• Regular Check-ins: Implement regular internal meetings to review reporting and discuss any market trends identified in ApartmentIQ. This promotes a culture of data-driven decision-making.
